Thanks for the replies! I was wondering if it had to do with my hormones as well. I'm going to call the doctors office tomorrow.

I had surgery April 29th. I'm down 53 lbs which I a beyond excited about. However I am hot all of the time regardless of what I am doing. Has anyone else had this issue or have any ideas as to why I am feeling this way? :-/

Is anything still available?

Are any of these clothes and/or shoes still available?

It feels wonderful to put on a pair of pants that users make me miserable and have them be too big! I am going to check goodwill this weekend, I almost always miss the good stuff! have you had surgery yet?

If anyone could help me out I would appreciate it! I am officially out of all the work clothes I have. I work in a cancer center and am in need of size 22,20, 2x, 1x clothes. My feet have also shrunk! Huge eye opener as to how much fluid I was retaining. If anyone has any clothes professional or casual could you please email me at Teresa.Freeman@carle.com with pictures and or pricing information. Thanks :-)

I had surgery April 29 and as pf a week after surgery I had lost 25 lbs. I don't have a scale and try to save it for my doctors visits. Doing pretty well but have found the hotter it is outside the more I crave fluids and less I want to eat. Not sure what to do :-/

I was never big on fruit before surgery..... However as of yesterday I am 3 weeks post op and craving all kinds of fruit. Mostly strawberries, oranges, and grapes....anyone else experience this? I am about to go crazy

Same here! I was sleeved April 29th. I thought maybe I'm eating or drinking too fast

When I eat and drink I sometimes get air bubbles as have to make myself belch. Does anyone else experience this? Am I taking too large of bites? I eat with a toddler spoon. Am I doing something wrong?

It may sound funny but not beig able to drink as I did before surgery was one of the things I was nervous about, and bummed about to be honest. Especially on those hot summer days I was bummed to think I may not be able to quench my thirst. Hopefully I will be as lucky as you are and be able to drink as I did before surgery.

I guess I should've made that more clear. I was curious about both but more interested in the size of the drink you take. At first I could hardly take small drinks without getting an air bubble and belching. However now that I am three weeks post op I am finding its easier to take a bigger drink without belching.

Has anyone found they've had an easier time with slightly bigger drinks the farther post op they are?

Sorry ladies I was on a pre op diet for two weeks then had surgery on the 29th lol so including the pre op diet and one week since surgery I've lost 25 lbs.

Lol I need to find something to do as well. I never realized how much revolved around or included eating! I too had the discomfort you're speaking of and I had to start taking very small drinks and found that it helped. If I take too big of a drink I get a lot of pressure and end up belching :-/
